All I Wanna Do

On Jen...

A couple pieces by Free People and the rest un known

The good people of the world

Are washing their cars on their lunch break 

Hosing and scrubbing as best as they can in skirts in suits

They drive their shiny Datsun's and Buick's

Back to the phone company, the record store too

Well they're nothing like Billy and me

'Cause all I wanna do is have some fun

I got a feeling I'm not the only one

All I wanna do is have some fun

I got a feeling I'm not the only one

- Sheryl Crow

This is a photo shoot I did awhile back in San Francisco

Shot by Jenna Alcala

It was so up my alley because we were able to shoot in a cool vintage shop that was full of old records,

books and of course cool clothes!

Freedom's just another friend for nothin' to lose

Nothin', don't mean nothin' hon if it ain't free, no no

And, feelin good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues

You know, feelin good was good enough for me

Good enough for Bobby McGee

From the Kentucky coal mine to the California sun

There Bobby shared the secrets of my soul

Through all kinds of weather, through everything we done

Yeah, Bobby baby kept me form the cold

-Janis Joplin

So after a successful day of shopping and an awesome night out with the gals,

we woke up ate a great breakfast then the spent the rest of our day on Haight Street,

before we had to return to the airport and head home.

The trip was short, sweet and definitely worth it.

I believe it is good to get out of our bubbles we are so comfortable with, that is almost routine to us...

even if you just drive a couple hours away, do it and make it into an adventure!

I thought my courdoroy bell bottoms, striped top and denim shirt were the perfect combo for cruising Haight Street...

AND!!! Let me tell you I scored some great finds, I'm excited just thinking about these pieces!

So stay tuned to see when I bust them out!

Now for the winner of the Bella give away..... drum roll, please....

It's.... #6

Who was, Devorelebeaumonstre!

Congrats!

I new all along

That I was right at the start bout the seeds of the weeds

That grew in your heart Self satisfaction for the factions

Who formed to tear us apart

Well I gave you the Midas touch

Oh you turned round and scratched out my heart

Oh what did you expect?

Oh tell me what did you expect?

To lay it on my head

So is it all upon my head?

So talk about spontaneous!

My girlfriend Kat and had an itch to go somewhere where we could snag some great vintage finds...

So we hopped on a plane Saturday morning and landed in San Francisco before noon!

We walked around the mission district then made it back to Union Square where we were staying and had some champagne!

We ate at the most delicious little Mexican joint recommended by Aimee from Song of Style.

Then met up with Aimee, Jules from Sincerely Jules and their boys.

After that we made our way to the Polk district and hung out at my fav SF bar The Kozy Kar!

I have been so into the color red lately so it was no surprise when I saw this cute little 70's secretary dress that I bought it and have also worn it twice in the pass week... shhh!

I am in texture as well so that's why I paired it with these tights then the thigh highs for an extra little something...

Hope you like!

And tomorrow I will be announcing the winner for Bella Clothing's giveaway!

So if you haven't entered then do it now!
